Zhipu AI’s two weeks of safety safeguards failed: GLM-5.3, only three days after being open-sourced, was jailbroken to bypass its refusal to answer queries.

Dongcha Beating AI News Flash: Abliteration.ai, a project specializing in creating "refusal-free" versions of open-source AI models, has launched a refusal-free variant of GLM-5.3 called abliterated-model-large-v2. The tool directly modifies model weights to weaken the model’s request refusal mechanism, targeting offensive cybersecurity, red team operations, and agent testing, and offers a paid API service. Zhipu AI had previously delayed the open release of GLM-5.3’s weights by two weeks for security assessment and hardening. After the weights were made public on August 28, Abliteration rolled out this modified version in just three days. GLM-5.3’s cyberattack capabilities are already far stronger than GLM-5.2: its ExploitBench score rose from 24.4% to 54.4%, and its two-hour ExploitGym task completion count jumped from 29 to 105. Abliteration has not yet released retest results for the refusal-free variant. Its API currently only defaults to blocking child sexual exploitation and self-harm content, while allowing default access to illegal activities, hate speech, harassment, and adult content.

VAST has raised an additional $3 billion, progressing from Series A to Series B+ in just six months.

Beating AI News (Insight): AI 3D firm VAST (Sanqi Wanwu) has closed its Series B and B+ funding rounds, raising a combined ~3 billion yuan, led by Matrix Partners China. Strategic investors including Perfect World, BlueFocus, Cambricon Technologies, and 37 Interactive Entertainment participated, while existing shareholders such as DC Capital, Spring Capital, and 4399 made follow-on investments. No specific valuation was disclosed for this round. The pace of its financing is even more striking than the amount raised: VAST secured a $50 million Series A round as recently as March, followed by nearly $200 million in Series A+ and A++ rounds in June, and over 1 billion yuan in Series A3 in July. Adding up the disclosed funding amounts, its total financing has reached nearly 6 billion yuan. AI 3D has indeed emerged as a sector heavily backed by capital lately. Its direct competitor Meshy just completed a nearly $400 million Series B round in July, hitting a $1.5 billion valuation.

The crypto-stock meme short squeeze scores another win, Rabbit’s market cap surges to $15 million, paired with U.S. small-cap stock WYFI.

Today, Robinhood Chain leads the meme token concept tied to meme stock short squeezes. Per GMGN market data, after the meme token BONER paired with U.S. stock HIMS surged past $70 million, the meme stock token Rabbit, issued via the o1 platform, hit a $15 million market cap in just 9 hours post-launch, currently trading at $15.56 million. Rabbit is paired with U.S. stock WYFI. Public information reveals the origin of the meme token: CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) recently developed an open-source, fiber-optic-based high-precision time synchronization protocol named Rabbit, which delivers sub-nanosecond accuracy, has been incorporated into IEEE standards, and is used in quantum experiments and emerging quantum network infrastructure. WYFI is an AI infrastructure company listed in 2025, specializing in data centers and HPC cloud services, and has potential to benefit from this technology. As of press time, per BIT (bit.com) market data, WYFI is down 0.74% in after-hours trading. It should be noted that the token’s short-term rally is closely linked to hype from top KOL "bonk guy" on the FOMO platform, who holds positions in the token and promotes it. BlockBeats reminds users that related tokens have high price volatility, and investors should exercise caution.
